The dress code as it stands applies at National or above record level shoots, though often any competition you attend will stipulate that the
GNAS dress code applies.
In the
GNAS rules of shooting, the dress code itself states
The statement is :-
S307(a) states "Members of the Society shooting and officiating at tournaments granted National or World Record Status by GNAS are required to wear the accepted dress of the society as detailed below."
S307(e)(i)
The recognised dress of the Society is plain dark green or white.*
S307(c) states
Gentlemen are required to wear trousers or shorts with long or short sleeved shirts.*
and 307(b)
Ladies are required to wear a dress, skirt, trousers or shorts with a suitable top which is not strapless, nor beachwear.*
on the subject of registered colours
307(e)(iii) states
Shooting colours shall consist of skirt, trousers or shorts in plain dark green or white, as defined above, and an upper garment of no more than four colours. The upper garment shall display the club, county or regional badge, name or logo. This name or logo may be embroidered onto the clothing or attached after manufacture
and can include badges pinned to the garment. The colours of the badge may exceed four.*
and S307(e)(iv) expressly forbids camo or olive drab
Olive Drab and camouflage patterns are not acceptable as shooting colours.*
Finally S307(h) warns that
Any archer not conforming to the above regulations shall be required, by the Judge and Tournament Organiser, to leave the shooting line and will not be permitted to take part in the competition.*
